Append 1D Array of strings to spreadsheet

[Murph]

This is killing me! 

I have an existing .csv file with header.
I want to add a row of text data(append) and repeat onto the next row when needed.
Seems to me I used to just wire my 1D array of strings to the 1D input of the Write to Spreadsheet.vi but that functions seems to have disappeared

Write delimited spreadsheet gives you all the functionality you need.

[Murph]

I thought so too but for some reason my write to spreadsheet does not allow 1D input

There is a 1D Data input to the Write Delimited Spreadsheet VI.

[Murph]

Not on mine!

This is what is driving me nuts. I've used that function numerous times but at the moment the is ONLY a 2D option.

If I right click the icon and select Automatic input it still rejects my 1D input.

I just tried it in LV2016 and it works as it is suppose to.

I think the problem is with LV2019

[altenbach]

There should be two inputs, one for 2D and one for 1D right below it.

If you don't see that, double-click the function (it's just a plain VI under the hood!) and see if somebody modified it. In that case, you might have to reinstall LabVIEW.

Hi Murph,

attach your version of WriteDelimitedFile.

What is the path to that function? Did you accidently change/overwrite that function despite it is in the VI.lib?

Mine works fine in LabVIEW 2019, so check my message above (here's the picture from the 2019 context help)

I went in to look at it and YES, it had been modified.

Looks like I was able to add it back and it appears to be working.

THANKS
